dude for something like a flash cart its not because you are going to make the money anyway..

and like i said you are just trolling me because you dont agree with my opinion

You are not going to make the money anyway?  In the scenario you made where it's better to pay less for a mass produced knock off yeah krikkzz won't be making money because of attitudes like yours where you don't give two fucks about the R&D that he puts into his work.  The reason the carts are "expensive" in the first place is that they take time, money, and resources and the price reflects that.  You are basically saying you don't give a shit about all the work Krikkzz put into making the cart in the first place and would rather give your money to someone pirating his efforts.

@kitsch yeah the thread basically died and nobody said much more about anything.  I like the carts you have planned and I've done a good deal of trading etc with you so I know my money is going to a good place.  It'll be a bit before I receive the money so we shall see if anyone chimes in but it looks like it's all headed your way.  I trust you'll put it to good use.  smile

What are your thoughts on this Dell IPS monitor?  I couldn't find any samsung ips displays.  The dell has plenty of good reviews.  Sorry for asking so many questions.  Like I stated I live in the middle of nowhere land so I can't look at any of these in person.  I can't stand dell computers but I've had good monitors in the past made by them.

lol "cheaper"... shoulda used "less expensive"

Yeah I watched the kickstarter video where they were talking about making these things cheaper for everyone!!!  It was actually cringe inducing for me to watch.  If you want to hear a really crappy demo of MGB and have a few laughs at people marketing our cheaper than other electronic music based hobby to people that haven't a clue for $500+ I suggest watching it.  The project funded because with the insane pricing it only took a few buyers to reach the goal which was barely met.  36 people made this KS project a reality and 12 of them were either a $25 dollar t-shirt or a $35 memory stick with all the source code and all files they have related to gameboy music with your name thrown into a hat to win a synthboy.

Thanks again for all the info guys.  I actually have a Samsung HDTV that was given to me by my fiancées brother and it works great.  Just waiting on my disability money to kick in and I'll have everything ordered.  I'll post pics of my setup once it's complete!  BTW Kitsch I'll hit you up with details for my donation to your cart development as soon as I get my "awards letter".  Such a strange thing for social security to call an explanation of benefits.  smile

One of these babies was on Britain's got talent.  While researching I found a lovely reply to a comment where someone was whole heartedly applauding NeX's mods and when asked about where to get started he "helpfully" replied by acting like he invented all the DMG mods in the world on his very own.  I found it to be ass backwards from the community aspect of this scene.  Instead of sharing the knowledge he obtained from other giving people in the community he plays dumb and acts like its private knowledge.



"Hey! I love your creative direction in creating such custom modifications as you post on your blog. Your creations have actually inspired me to take up such endeavors, yet I have no prior experience to wiring and programming, and I have a great determination to get started. Where would you direct me in creating such a foundation?"

Thanks in advance

Blue


"thanks for the kind words, i would love to help you but i don’t really have any useful tips. i found myself without a job and needed something to fill the time, so i picked up a gameboy and had a play with it. i haven’t had any courses or anything like that, but i did get some of my inspiration from the internet. but good luck, just do things, and if it breaks you learn what not to do"

It's basically a $500 arduinoboy to sell to clueless individuals interested in retro sound.

But them custom printed screens Kitsch!  They 1-up'd you with "borrowed" game art.  tongue  The only positive thing I saw was that they have made 1 sale.  Hopefully they just end up sitting on 20 of your cases and buttons they are currently attempting to sell.

"New designs coming weekly, its a slow process of designing, producing, photographing and listing each new design.

More parts to follow as well, battery covers, faceplates and buttons.

We accept trade-ins for cash or trade. We also do repair and sell parts. Don't hesitate to contact us with any questions. "




Insane mark up of Kitsch goods and the only thing they are doing is putting custom art on the screen covers..... -___-

With Kitsch being based out of North Carolina and the etsy seller New York I would have to go with someone reselling kitsch products.

If you do plan on getting a Mac Mini new, I do suggest getting one with an i7 Intel processor with no extras. You can upgrade the RAM and add a 2nd HDD/SSD yourself for much cheaper. Prior to upgrading the RAM, make sure you get the correct "type."

Yeah I will be buying one new directly from apple.  I already planned on getting the fastest processor and doing the other upgrades myself.  I want to max out the RAM and add an SSD drive(recommendations welcome).  Still taking recommendations on a good monitor as well.  Been looking at different LG and Samsung monitors.  I'm wanting something with a matte screen and excellent color reproduction as I do digital art as a hobby as well.  Probably around 21'.  Also matte isn't set in stone.  If a glass monitor has pros I don't know about over a matte let me know!

Hell you could build 2 shruthi's for less than one of these and get a lot more 8bit sounds out of them than these.

the rare "unicorn" white model sold for  $1375.00.....

how much of that went to trash80?

This.  Seriously anybody thinking these are worth it should really invest in a soldering station, a few DMG's, a couple arduinoboy kits, and take the time to learn a useful skill for modding DMG's themselves.  You could buy everything you need to fully kit out like 5 DMG's for less than half the price of one of these.
